IV. Using Device
A. Basic Operation
Switch on the device using
key. The device will automatically
perform self-calibration, displaying software version.

: If "0.00 kg" does not display on indicator, press
key to zero
the device.
Guide subject to stand upon the measurement platform. After the weight
has stabilized, the "stable" symbol will appear on indicator.
Note
: If subject's weight exceeds scale capacity, indicator will display
"Err" prompt due to overload.
B. Hold
The hold function determines average weight, designed to be used if
subject's weight will not stabilize (ex: an active child).
Note:
if fluctuation is too severe, average weight determination will be
difficult and hold may not function correctly
1. Switch on the device normally.
2. Press the
key. "HOLD" will be displayed on the indicator.
3. Guide subject to stand on measurement platform.
4. After a few seconds, the average weight will be displayed on the
indicator. This weight will be locked - at this point, subject can step off
from device.
5. To release the locked weight, press the
key again to return to
the device to normal mode.
Note
: Hold function can be activated before or after subject stands on
measurement platform. However, if subject finds it difficult to stand still,
we recommend activating Hold after subject stands on platform.

key to enter BMI mode.
